"Ernald de Bosco [...] took the side of the barons against King John, for which act of rebellion the sheriff of co. Northants on 15 Aug., 1216, was ordered 'to take the lands of Ernald de Bosco because he was with the king's enemies.' He speedily made his peace with the king and his lands were restored to him by royal command on 4 September in the same year. [...] On 16 Feb., 1253, Ernald was appointed justice of all the king's forests this side Trent with a salary of 100 marks yearly as long as he remained chief justice, at the same time he was appointed warden of the castle of Sauvey at a yearly rent to the exchequer of 5 marks."
